Hi, I have a problem with my iPhone SE GPS, who can help me to see the iPhone SE GPS hardware( antenna or module) in the pictures? I visited so many sites and could not see it. Are the WiFi , Bluetooth and GPS antenna the same?
Is this a good question?

Almost exactly the same with iPhone 5s.
The GPS processor is the cellular chips themselves. They are located at the lower half of the board.
There is an RF bridge cable running across the board to the top, where the antenna is.
On the upper half of the board, there are multiplexers, LNAs, filters, etc. RF stuff.
The antenna feed point is at the very top of the board, bottom side, next to a screw hole. GPS and cellular signal shares the same antenna, the top bezel itself.
There is a screw and a metal clip connecting the antenna feed point to the top bezel. Forgetting one of them may resulting poor cellular reception, slow cellular download and no GPS.

thanks , i got it, bout another question, What do you mean about the metal plate? is that below picture ?
Yeah that one.
Is there a video/picture of where and in which direction to place this metal plate?
Any update on this, im also have gps problem.. where need the metal need to located?
The plate is fixed using the 2.4 mm Phillips #000 screw at the top of the logic board (iPhone SE Logic Board Replacement). From the top the screw goes through
1. the hole attached to the case,
2. the logic board,
3. the metal plate
It is the same as in the iPhone 5s (iPhone 5s Logic Board Replacement).
